Mrs Cousens - Library Manager

Our BIG Summer Read participants were super excited to receive their certificates and canteen vouchers.

This is a Public Libraries Victoria reading initiative to combat the ‘summer slide’ in literacy over the holidays. Many schools, including ours, are joining in with all the fun.

All students were invited to read and record 10 books from 1 December 2023 to 31 January 2024 plus a book review on one of their books.

Sam Arancibia was emotionally overcome when she won the book review lucky draw.
